just a thought

I think it's a very good idea. This is a security site, so there should be more about securing anything, so you don't have to ask each time or search the forums to hell. Maybe it also would be nice to sort out the tutorial forum (negative, I don't say you should do it ), put the original ones that actually cover something about security in that.. whatever it is. So don't only keep the stuff inside a DoS topic...

Well. maybe that's a bit to much revolutionairy and much work...

I for one would love a tutorial or links for that matter on how to protect from DOS attacks.

The things I like about the tutorials people write here is that they are easier to understand if you are new to computer security. A lot of tut's assume you have a large computer knowledge and that isn't always so. At least in my case it isn't. Plain english tut's work great for me.

I hope the idea flies.

Well, personally I think this would fall under the tutorials section also. If you want a page dedicated to defending against different forms of attack, have negative create another sticky post, like the tutorial forums index.

Another idea would be to just compile a complete list of links on where to get information on defending yourself from DoS, and worms and, etc etc. Then, when a new site comes up, or some new important information shows up, then just add a post to that thread.

It's not a bad idea, but I don't think its necessary either.

Personally (not that anyone asked) I think this is a great idea. It would be interesting reading for all concerned. I know I would probably gain a lot just from reading the tutorials and info here for the next few years so more can only help.
